Have noticed one has just sold on Ebay for 52.82. A lot of money ? although it stated as being in working order so perhaps not too much to pay for a rare beast. | ||

Valuable Philips I had better keep our Philips AWB098 in good running order then. I wonder what its value might be with a full box of 'critical' spares such as motor, programmer etc ? | ||

can we have a photo of the front please? I may have one of these, it is an AWB something, don't remember the number. It's about 400 rpm spin, Italian made, induction motor, not the Philips DC motor.Dark brown dashboard. Mine is right at the back of the shed, hard to get to, hence I don't know the number. It might be 094??? | ||

Outer tub produced by C.I (Polymers) Ltd - the same company that produced the outer plastic tubs for Hotpoint. Just a shame that the date is mising the year...

Yay, so glad you have got it, looks amazing. Can't wait to see it in operation. Do you have the matching dryer or do we need to keep our eyes peeled for one? Does Rob's Grandfarthers dryer match. Rich | ||

Phillips AWB098 Variatronic
Great work there Paul, looks in real good nic, the boot looks in good shape as well, the one on the Electra was original, for a seal soo thin you would have thought they would have ripped easy...perhaps flexible is best... Now, does it have the elusive transit bracket tucked away and attached inside?? I can see where the transit instructions where stuck on the back...
Have ordered a belt and cant wait to film the 1000rpm spin drain..heres the Electra, just love that sound... | ||

AWB904
Hi Chris, good to hear from you, those 904`s sold well on price through the Independants, I visited some holiday cottages on the west coast a couple of years ago that still had two working models albeit a little rusty on the fronts...
Do I spy I white cabinet slope front keymatic to the right of the Phillips?? Hows the house build going?? or is it complete, would love to see the pics and what inverter / low voltage washer are you using now?? cheers, Mike
